Celebrate Earth Day 2025 with a fun school holiday event where kids and families can explore ways to care for our planet.Activities include:
Make your own leaf crowns with Acacia Play:
Create handmade crowns from leaves and cardboard, perfect to adorn heads and homes. Every crown tells a story of our connection to the earth, and we invite you to join us as you collage a little nature that will grow in your heart and memories long after the day.
Plus, join us for more hands-on activities families can enjoy at their own pace including leaf rubbings, wax resist art, pumpkin and sunflower seed collecting, decorating seed packets to take home, and sampling delicious apple spirals with cinnamon to taste.
Low Sensory Wayapa Wuurk:
Join health practitioner and proud Darkinjung woman Sarah Corrigan from Rainbow Crow Cultural Collective for a special inclusive Wayapa program for neurodivergent people and their carers. This session is particularly targeted to those with sensory needs.
